## Most critical reviews (7 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Widget?

*2026-02-14*

Where? I can’t add it to the Home Screen…

### 1/5 — Review

*2021-01-28*

I would like exposure to the different regional accents of Portugal. Or consistently two of the most prominent accents of Portugal, to attune my receptive Portuguese to the phonetic variations. 

Gostava de conhecer os diferentes sotaques regionais de Portugal.  Ou consistentemente dois dos sotaques os mais marcantes de Portugal, para sintonizar o meu português receptivo às variações fonéticas.

After having given this app a fair chance, with  two review messages requesting improvement, I have finally decided to delete the app. 

The level of daily words is profoundly elementary, the enunciation is mediocre and the final straw was finding a grammatical error!

Too bad. The app has great potential! If only they would heed these reviews.

### 1/5 — Notification

*2020-08-19, version 1.1.3*

The daily notification doesn’t work!

### 1/5 — Same word every day

*2020-03-05*

I’ve been getting the Same Portuguese word every day for months. (Have to figure out how to turn notifications for this off.)

### 2/5 — Keep having to delete and reinstall

*2025-02-05, version 1.3.3*

I get notifications but yesterday’s or even the previous days word.  Shame, may end up finding another app.

### 3/5 — Notifications Do Not Work

*2023-04-20*

Good app, but Notifications do not work for me when I try setting it at different times of the day. Also have to hard close the app for a new word of the day to show up, otherwise it just stays on the previous day’s word.

### 3/5 — Good but to basic

*2019-12-09*

Good but to basic for someone who’s has been learning for 5 years.
